Who
is this mermaid…

Hi! I’m the heart behind Making Merfolk. I’ve been teaching swim lessons since I was 16, and now with over 20 years of experience, I still believe there's nothing more magical than watching someone build confidence in the water.

From infants taking their first splash to adults overcoming fear, I teach with patience, encouragement, and safety at the core. I’m also a certified lifeguard and pool operator, offering services for events, parties, and private swim days. And when I’m not teaching? I’m a mermaid, literally! I bring whimsy and wonder to children's parties and special events through mermaiding, blending fun and fantasy with water safety awareness.

Whether you're learning to float, planning a pool party, or just want to swim with a mermaid, I’m here to help you make waves; safely and joyfully.

🌊 Support a Swimmer – Give the Gift of Water Safety

Not every child has access to swim lessons — but every child deserves the chance to learn. Your donation helps cover the cost of lessons for students from underserved communities, ensuring they gain not just a fun skill, but a life-saving one.

Drowning is one of the leading causes of accidental death for children, especially in communities with limited access to swim education. At Making Merfolk, we believe swim safety is a right, not a privilege.

🙏 Your support can:

  • Provide free or reduced lessons to families in need

  • Equip students with proper swim gear

  • Fund community water safety workshops

Every dollar helps us make a difference — one swimmer at a time.
